Mentions meeting the nephew of the author of The actor, an anonymously published account of Junius Brutus Booth. He identifies the author as "Vail -- I forget his first name. He was rather eccentric, I fancy (I met him but once - some years ago) for when I referred to this book he seemed annoyed and abruptly changed the subject and left me." In a postscript, sends regards on behalf of Lawrence Barrett.

A collection of letters and other matter chiefly relating to Booth's Theatre, New York, 1874-76. Two autograph letters signed from Booth: 14 November 1874 (14 p., with a typed transcript), 8 February 1876. An 18-page account, in Booth's autograph, of his connections with Booth's Theatre, dated by W. Winter, 1876. Two autograph letters signed from J. Henry Magonigle to Booth and J.H. McVicker (both February 1876). An account (pencilled) by McVicker of Booth's troubles with his Theatre. A long account (autograph letter signed: 31 p.) of Booth's California career, with a skeleton chronology, October 1877, by the Rev. F.C. Ewer. Printed proof of an article (17 galleys by William Winter, probably for the N.Y. Tribune, being a biographical account of Booth, probably ca. 1892). This is corrected and annotated by Winter and by Booth. The collection appears to have belonged to Winter, whose autograph notes appear on many items.
